Best Face Mask: 10 To Keep Your Skin Feeling Fresh And Flawless

Face masks are without doubt the most indulgent (and effective) way to treat your skin to some serious TLC. When your skin is feeling a little more 50 Shades Of Grey (and let’s be honest, when isn’t it?) than radiant and glowing, there’s nothing better than taking off your make-up at the end of a long day and slathering on a rich, moisturising face mask.

Forget the cliche green muck and cucumber slices carefully perched on eyelids, face masks these days are hi-tech, packed full of healthy ingredients that are super hydrating. Although, we’ll admit, sometimes a cucumber slice can be the perfect finishing touch to our flawlessly applied face mask. And they’re great for snacking on too… Hello cream cheese and cucumber sandwiches yo! Well if it’s good enough for the queen…

If you’re not into all the face mask fafff, then why not try a face mask brush instead? Essentially a paint brush for your face, you can sweep on your charcoal mask without getting your hands (and inevitably your bedsheets) completely destroyed. Huzzah!

No time for the wash/peel off? Go for an overnight mask instead. With more of a thick jelly consistency, smooth this on before you go to sleep then let it sink in while you get your 8 hours. You’ll wake up with super hydrated and totally refreshed skin, trust.
